I thought that could be a cool concept because I don't believe there are any consequences at all for having a a low approval rating.

Absolute Chad Posted October 14, 2020 Author Share Posted October 14, 2020 why because your approval rating is zero % Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zim Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 It more because the approval system is kinda broken currently. It would need to be rewoked completly if you want it to have such an effect. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zed Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 Does the approval system really matter? Quote In paradisum deducant te Angeli; in tuo adventu suscipiant te martyres, et perducant te in civitatem sanctam Ierusalem.Chorus angelorum te suscipiat, et cüm Lazaro quondam paupere æternam habeas requiem.

You've suggested disadvantages for a poor approval rating, but what about perks for a good approval rating? I feel like without a positive side to it, there's really no reason for anyone to support transforming the innocuous approval rating system into a potential obstacle.

BelgiumFury Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 I think Alex said not too long ago he wanted to balance approval rating. And have more interaction with the internal affairs of your country. Temper your expectations though, civil wars won't happen, Alex has said multiple times (tens of times) cities are just like land an untouchable resource.

Maybe increase commerce resource production and increase morale in soldiers because soldiers will believe in what there fighting for.

Sir Scarfalot Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 Ahhh, the monthly "make approval rating mean something" suggestion! We were about due for it. Anyway, my usual rebuttal to this suggestion remains: My approval rating stands at -1147.68%. That's negative one thousand one hundred forty-seven percent. Meanwhile the record for lowest approval stands at nearly negative ten thousand percent. In the past, meanwhile, my approval rating has been as high as something like 300%, and the current highest approval is over 2135%. I'm pretty sure those facts speak for themselves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
